Step-by-step recipe for thick apple jam in slices from the Gala variety. Two cooking methods: classic (transparent) and fast. Ideal breakfast jam with toast.
Description and taste
Homemade apple jam is the basis of a cozy breakfast: artisan bread, butter and warm amber sweetness on top.
The Gala variety is excellent for jam. It has a sweet taste, firm flesh and thin skin. When cooked, the slices retain their shape, become transparent and give a thick, viscous texture without excess boiling.

Gala jam can be prepared in two ways. The classic three-day technology allows you to keep the slices intact and obtain a clear, thick syrup. The quick method is suitable if you want results on the same day - the texture will be softer and closer to jam, but the taste will remain rich.
